of an electron?
____________________________________________
2. Compared to a proton, what is the relative mass and charge
of a neutron?
____________________________________________
3. Which statement about units is correct?
Temperature is measured in C and energy in W
Temperature is measured in C and energy in J
Temperature is measured in C and energy in K
4. Which equation is correct?
energy = mass x specific latent heat x temperature
energy = mass x shcx temperature
energy = mass x shc x change in temperature

Answers
1. Mass of electron very small and charge -1
2. Mass of neutron 1 and charge 0
3. Temperature is measured in C and energy in J
4. energy = mass x shc x change in temperature
5. 4180 x 5 x 1 = 20900 J
6. 100 / 0.5 = 200 Pa
7. Pascals
8. Temperature
9. kg/m3
10. 1000 x 10 X 5 = 50000 Pa
11. Aluminium
12. Repel
13. North to South
14. More turns, Stronger current, iron core
15. Voltmeter, Ammeter, Thermometer, Heater,
Stopwatch
16. Power too high, too hot so magnet weaker. Left it on
for too long so too hot so magnet weaker. Not
placing paperclips in same place each time.
17. Dependent.
